info 

The six musicians in Trail West are Alain Campbell acoustic guitar and whistles, Andrew Findlater drums & percussion, Jonathan Gillespie keyboards & vocals, Seonaidh MacIntyre whistles, acoustic guitar, Highland bagpipes, smallpipes, tromb & vocals, Allan J. Nairn electric guitar, acoustic guitar, banjo & bass guitar and Ian Smith accordion & backing vocals, with guest musicians on this CD credited as Robert Robertson and ?Big? Johnny Gillespie. The production of the CD is excellent, creating a thoroughly contemporary sound which at the same time evinces both a sincere deferential nod to tradition and the exuberance of a live performance. 'Countless Isles and Endless Miles' is a cracking release which remains in the memory long after the CD has finished. It deserves to be heard by as wide an audience as possible.
